Online Game: Starting with an SSS-Level Plundering Talent

At Purple Sky City.

As John established his city, the Hunters grew even more frantic, with waves of them continuously pouring in from all directions.

Soon, a powerful Hunters' Brood Mother appeared, its roar reverberating through the area as it unleashed a soul attack.

While the Four Symbols Guardian Formation could defend against the physical attacks from the Hunters, it could not block the soul attacks.

The roars of these Hunters' Brood Mothers were not lethal, but they still caused immense discomfort to everyone.

"Damn it, I'll go kill those things!" Jolyne cursed angrily, charging out of the formation to kill the Hunters' Brood Mothers.

The Feather Spirit race specialized in soul manipulation, making them naturally resistant to Hunters and Shadow Clan powers.

The Hunters' Brood Mother's soul attacks were no threat to her.

John and the others, including Cand-Dragon, also rushed out of the defensive formation to deal with the Hunters' Brood Mothers.

Sini wanted to join the fight, but John stopped her.

Though she had mastered the Power of the Nine Nether, her strength was still too weak. If she got infected with the Hunters' Hatred Mark, it would be far too dangerous.

With their combined efforts, the Hunters' Brood Mothers were easily slain, unable to retaliate at all.

However, all of them became marked by the Hunters' Hatred Mark, especially John. As long as he appeared, all the Hunters within a radius of several hundred miles could sense him.

But John was unafraid.

These Hunters, relying on their overwhelming numbers, might be able to kill upper-tier gods at their peak or even The Overseer.

But they were no threat to him. With the Wrath of the Gods talent, he could even wipe out every single Hunter on Shadow Star if he wanted.

More Hunters' Brood Mothers kept appearing in the distance, but upon seeing the terrifying presence of John and his team, they no longer dared to recklessly unleash their soul attacks. Instead, they hid within the Hunters' ranks, directing the Hunters to launch a frenzied attack on the group.

Feeling the pressure, Cand-Dragon and the others withdrew back into the protection of the city walls and the defensive formation.

The Hunters kept coming in endless waves, their numbers seemingly infinite.

But despite their numbers, they couldn't break through the Four Symbols Guardian Formation, and Peter had not activated the Seven Kill Formation yet.

Without the threat of the Hunters' Brood Mother's soul attacks, the group no longer had any worries. They went on a killing spree, slaughtering the Hunters without mercy.

Even someone, leading the army of Spirit Beasts, charged outside the defensive formation, showcasing his overwhelming strength.

...

Buzz!

At that moment, a spatial power ripple spread, and several figures appeared on the city walls.

John was startled to see that it was Ice Talker and her companions, but he didn't pay them any mind.

"Godslayer, you're being really unkind! You build a city and don't even let me know? I came to help defend it!" she greeted him enthusiastically. Then, with a thought, she summoned the armies of Nature Clan and Saint Spirit Clan from her World-in-Hand.

"Hmm, there's a formation!" she noticed the formation with surprise. After a moment, her gaze turned to Peter, and she looked at him with envy.

Being a Formation Master was an even rarer existence than being an Alchemist.

Across the entire Shadow Star, it seemed that only Peter and the Shadow Clan's The Absolute had inherited the Immortals' formation legacy.

"Why are you here again?" John asked, his tone somewhat displeased.

"What? You're not welcome?" Ice Talker snorted, annoyed. "I specifically came to help you defend your city, and this is how you treat me?"

Not only was John displeased, but the powerful members of the various races under his command were also somewhat dissatisfied.

With the formation in place, the Hunters could not approach the city walls at all. Ice Talker's arrival with her people seemed like they were simply there to farm monsters.

"Of course, you're welcome." Before John could speak, Sini stepped forward.

She looked at Ice Talker and said, "So, how about joining Purple Sky City? We can definitely fend off the monster tide and ensure the city is successfully established."

John's eyes lit up as he also looked toward Ice Talker.

This woman held a high status within the Nature Clan, even the Nature Lord God regarded her highly.

If she were to join Purple Sky City, it would essentially bind the Nature Clan to them.

"Hmm..." Ice Talker hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement, looking at Sini and saying, "Since you've asked, I won't refuse."

Then she added, "However, I only represent myself, not the entire Nature Clan."

John received her request and immediately agreed, asking, "Ice Talker, if I were to formally invite you to join, would you accept?"

"No." She answered firmly, without hesitation. "You don't have the same influence as Sini."

"John, don't you think you should thank me?" Sini laughed playfully, asking with a smug expression.

John was speechless. Sensing that Ice Talker's energy was unstable, he asked in confusion, "Are you injured?"

He was somewhat surprised. Ice Talker was a Peak Level 2 Overseer, an immensely powerful figure. It was rare for anyone to hurt her.

"Yeah, someone set me up." She frowned, clearly unwilling to elaborate, and then added, "Godslayer, if we succeed in defending this city, I'll give you an enormous opportunity."

"Oh? What is it?" John asked, intrigued.

"It's a secret for now." Ice Talker smiled smugly, before jumping into the fray to slay the Hunters.

The monster tide assault had already begun. The number of Hunters was growing, and they had now reached the barrier of the Four Symbols Guardian Formation.

The strange thing about these Hunters was that their attacks carried soul damage. While their attacks were not powerful, the sheer number of them meant they could not breach the protective formation in the short term.

Peter was not in a hurry to activate the Seven Deadly Strikes Formation.

Additionally, there was a continuous supply of Spirit Stones keeping the guardian formation active. Its barrier was nearly indestructible.

At this moment, in the distance, the Shadow Clan's army appeared. It was vast, numbering in the millions, and all of them were upper-tier gods.

Among them, there were over three hundred thousand at the peak of upper-tier gods.

Ice Talker noticed the Shadow Clan's army and exclaimed in surprise, "Eighteen city lords! Godslayer, it looks like they've made up their minds to destroy your city."

"Oh, really?" John replied nonchalantly, even feeling a bit excited.

If he could slay all eighteen of those city lords, they would undoubtedly drop eighteen Holy Artifacts.

These guys were practically delivering weapons, gear, and experience to him on a silver platter.

"Human, you have dared to provoke the Shadow Clan, today you will die for sure!" A furious shout rang out as the Shadow Clan army charged forward, and the Hunters immediately parted to make a path.

Boom boom...

A series of booming sounds followed as countless magic spells bombarded the Four Symbols Guardian Formation's barrier.

In an instant, cracks began to appear all over the barrier.

The Four Symbols Guardian Formation was powerful, but it couldn't withstand the full force of so many Shadow Clan experts attacking at once.

Among them, there were also several hundred thousand upper-tier gods at their peak.

"Senior!" John quickly called out to Peter.

"Understood!" Peter acknowledged, his mind already focused. He took out a pile of Spirit Stones and immediately activated the Seven Deadly Strikes Formation.

Buzz!

A massive wave of energy surged as the Seven Deadly Strikes Formation activated. Countless magic balls screamed through the air, covering everything, and began assaulting the Shadow Clan army inside the formation.

A violent wind swept through, and many of the Shadow Clan experts were sent flying.

Although the Seven Deadly Strikes Formation was only an intermediate-level formation, with enough Spirit Stones fueling it, its power was not to be underestimated.

Only the peak upper-tier gods could barely resist the barrage of magic balls.

The regular soldiers, however, suffered catastrophic losses in an instant. They were unable to continue their assault on the formation's barrier.

"Eclipse, open the spatial passage." The leader of a peak upper-tier god turned to a red-haired man beside him and ordered.

"Got it!" The red-haired man waved his hand casually and opened a spatial passage.

"Split Void talent!" John's face changed slightly. Among these people, there was someone who had mastered the Split Void talent.

The Split Void talent created a spatial passage that ignored the isolation of the Four Symbols Guardian Formation entirely.

Whoosh!

Inside the city walls, a spatial energy fluctuation occurred, and a spatial passage appeared, linking the formation's exterior.

The Shadow Clan army and countless Hunters surged into the city.

"Kill!" The battle cry echoed as chaos broke out on the city walls.

"Quick, stop them!" Lei Huo commanded, leading the Spirit Beast army straight into the fray, engaging the Shadow Clan experts pouring into the city.

For a moment, the enemies were held back.

But this was far from over. The red-haired man used his Split Void talent again, appearing at other sections of the city walls, and opened four more spatial passages.

Countless armies poured in, an endless stream.

The Four Symbols Guardian Formation set up by Peter instantly lost its effectiveness.

Fortunately, there was still the Seven Deadly Strikes Formation, which continued to wreak havoc on the Shadow Clan experts and Hunters.

Even so, the pressure on the Spirit Beast army increased dramatically. At this rate, the city's fall was inevitable.

Roar…

At this moment, a series of furious roars echoed as numerous Hunters' Brood Mothers appeared at the perimeter of the Seven Deadly Strikes Formation, immediately unleashing soul attacks.

Instantly, the pressure on everyone increased.

"Godslayer, I'll take care of those Hunters' Brood Mothers, you focus on the enemies in the city," Ice Talker said, giving a quick reminder before charging out of the city walls with Terran and the Emperor of the Underworld, directly engaging and killing the Hunters' Brood Mothers.

John also took swift action, charging toward the Shadow Clan army inside the city.

"Hmph, human, let's see how strong you really are. Blood Domain!" The leading expert shouted angrily, joining forces with the eighteen city lords to directly activate the Blood Domain.

Buzz!

A blood-red mist spread, nearly covering the entire city. Under the influence of this special power of laws, everyone's power was severely restricted.

Meanwhile, the Shadow Clan army and the Hunters were unaffected.

In an instant, the Spirit Beast side suffered considerable casualties, with Lei Huo even being hit by several blood-colored rays, severely wounded.

"Heaven and Earth Transformation!" John roared in fury, and a terrifying aura erupted as he instantly transformed into a towering hundred-foot giant.

"Godslayer, we, the eighteen of us, are using the Blood Domain together. You'll never break through," the Wrath of the Heavens leader, having already witnessed John's power, said without panic this time.

"Hmph, is that so?" John sneered, raising his massive sword high. Chaos Force gathered, and a violent gale surged around him as the Amethyst Battle Armor enveloped him, allowing him to endure the attacks of numerous Shadow Clan experts.

"Creation and Destruction!" he shouted, and his giant sword tore through the sky, descending with terrifying force.

Boom…

The space shattered, and torrents of chaotic space energy swirled around. The giant sword plunged into the Blood Domain, and John felt a huge resistance.

He was slightly surprised. The Blood Domain, set up by these eighteen people working together, was actually more stable than his World-in-Hand.

But it was not indestructible.

"Break for me!" he roared, and the overwhelming Chaos Force gathered. Space itself fractured as his giant sword slowly descended.

"What kind of attack is this?" The leading Shadow Clan expert was horrified, his brows furrowing tightly. He quickly ordered, "Stop him! We cannot let him keep attacking."

He could sense that the Blood Domain was incapable of withstanding John's assault.
